I thought it was pretty obvious OP meant business as in he can make us a fortune rather than trying to say he’s a better player than Laudrup, Gazza etc 

I thought it was pretty obvious myself , as I said in a post a little further down.

How long till his first poor performance and the inevitable thread declaring him to be utter shite and should never play for the club again.

I’m getting in early.

Aribo out.

[Brian Fantana 28,894]

I'm just happy that we are getting a better calibre of player again. The days of Kevin Kyle and Ian Black were some of the darkest in our history. 

[GersInCanada 7,775]

Early days but Aribo does look like a bargain.

Best transfer business ever ? No way as he still has much to prove.

[cascadeshrimp 1,459]

Rod Wallace on a free wasn't a bad addition

Aribo looks like another steal

[MayboleLoyal_atb 3,724]

Why do we constantly go over the top with players 😂

[loyalfollower 1,543]

Ever??  The guy will do fine but considering we’ve bought legends like gough,laudrup  McCoist and Goram to name just 4 shows that it won’t be anywhere near the best transfer ever.

could even state a case for prso and even boumsong if we’re comparing him to free transfers as 1 fought and played like a general for us whilst helping us win the league and the other made us 8 million profit in 6 months.

[HuistraHairDo 12,496]

Jumping the gun a bit with Aribo, take a look at some threads from this time last year we had ppl telling us that Coulibally and Ejeria were the new Petit and Viera and should have them signed up immediately.

im not saying he’s the same but you have to be mentally strong to play for us and we won’t know that with the big man  until we see if he’s up for  a game up at Dingwall on a Wednesday winters night freezing his arse off, because the two I mentioned were definitely not despite being half decent players.

Morelos will be the best bit of business in recent history imo, fully expect to get a hefty price for the lad we bought for buttons, which will only get higher the more goals he scores for us.

A few good performances against European minnows and frendlies = potentially most improved player we've ever had. 

[Amokachi 3,050]

Fire him into The Hall of Fame.  

[lau03143 84]

Maybe to a certain generation. But how do you compare, is it titles won or profit made?

The profit we made on Boumsong is a good piece of business, but in terms of impact to team, players like Laudrup and Gascoigne to keep the impetus for 9 going, or even the getting the likes of Prso through the door could be seen as good business.

[MacBoyd 5,486]

Boumsong for free then 8m 6 months later 15 years ago.

[Bearsden bear 2,376]

Looks a bargain. Glen Kamara also has the potential to make us a right few quid for an outlay of £50k

[orange&blue92 1,284]

Mark Hateley has got to be up there, before my time, that I can remember him, but my old man says for him to come to us at that time, injured or not, was a coup.

[CF2 WINNIE 1,006]

Rod Wallace on a free must be up there

Those names make you shudder 

[sassaaaa 11,406]

Lets wait and see how hes doing 6-7 months into the season..........

[BF1 167]

Withholding judgement on how good (or otherwise) he is until we start playing better teams. Optimistic from what I've seen so far though. 

[Bluepeter9 5,167]

There are so many great transfers that are miles in front of Aribo, who hasn't done anything yet (yes shows potential) - but signings like Souness, Laudrup, Gascoigne, electrified the support from the start and went on to deliver trophies. Really looking forward to seeing what he is really capable of tho'.

Mark Hateley. You couldn't get further if you tried for a player to be described an instant success. 

That was back in the day when I never missed a game and for virtually a whole season to a man the support wanted him benched. He was awful. 

Then the day he scored those goals against the sheep at Ibrox to win the league he became a star for us not just that day but almost every game after. 

Closest we have had since to this type of player was Prso

Fuck me calm doon

[Smile 26,610]

This is more of an age based assumption I guess older supporters will have many more favourites to talk about.
